Computer Guy

Good Evening everyone, Hope your week's been  good:)  Really busy at work at the moment as everyone is taking leave before the new holiday year starts. My card for today is a card I made for my son Steven..it was last week Friday 13th.. He isn't a big card fan, but won't have a bought one now lol!! Does this ring a bell lol!!  Any how I have used a Mo Manning image called Computer Guy...and this is him to a "T" He has the same desk, everything around him like that and always a cup of coffee on the table...Even NO hair!!
I have used a sketch from - "Here Come The Boys".  It was a lovely sketch to work with, hope you like my card.


I decorated the inside the same - sorry couldn't get a good photo

This is a close up of the image - I did colour the screen 
but it doesn't show up very well on the photo


Card Recipe
Image: Mo Manning "Computer Guy"
Paper: Kelly Harwood - Abstract Prints
Corners: Wild Orchid Crafts
Colouring: Prisma Pencils
Sentiment: Computer Generated

Entering for the following Challenges:

Here Come The Boys: Sketch
Dream Valley: Anything Goes
One Stitch at a Time: Anything Goes
Catch the Bug: Anything Birthday
Cards for Men: Boys and there toys
Make it Monday: Anything goes

I was a bit scared at first when I down loaded this image, It looked a bit daunting at first, but I'm really pleased with the way it has turned out...couldn't do it without my lovely prismas.  I never thought I would be able to colour images, had a go with various pens..then Steven and Nicole bought me some Prisma's for Christmas last year and I ventured into a whole new world lol!! It took me ages before I ventured with them..scared of looking an idiot lol!! but I have gained confidence over the last 10 months..so anyone out there who may have got some for Christmas or as a pressie, have a go they are really lovely to use!  
Sorry I'm waffling here, let me say good night, and thank you for stopping by, will be round to visit over the week-end.
Biggest of Hugs,
Marjorie

    Hi Marjorie. Oh this card is absolutely stunning. I love your coloring. Thank you for visiting my blog today and leaving such a wonderful comment. I must say I'm a little confused though...I don't know what butterfly tag you are referring to...can you give me a link to the post you are referring to? Thank you. Enjoy your day!

    Lovely card. It's really hard to make a "boys" card expecially if you like to use flowers a lot and pink colour like I ;-))

    Hi Marjorie

    There does look a lot of colouring to do on that image .. .. but you have done it perfectly. I love the finished look very much.

    You made me smile in that his socks co-ordinate perfectly with his top. I don't think I know any men that would do that LOL!!!

    Doesn't say much for the men in my life I suppose!!!!

    Have a great weekend.
